Description

Loopet Loppet is deepening your connection with the outdoors! We’re celebrating Dakota people, land, and traditions along Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ, the Dakota name for Bassett Creek. The Loopet Loppet will now be known as the Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ Loopet Loppet!

The newly named in 2024 Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ Loopet Loppet will maintain our marque 6-hour or 12-hour events from previous years and help you connect you with the earth in new ways. Come solo or as a team of 4 to run or walk as many 5-mile  loops as possible.

We’ll also have a Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ Little Loopet for kids to walk, run, and romp! Or try the Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ 1 Loop Fun Run/Walk! This untimed event is perfect for running or walking along the creek, either solo or with friends.

All events will start and finish at the Trailhead, where we’ll have an Indigenous People’s festival for everyone to enjoy. It will feature Native vendors, chefs, running groups, artists, storytellers, and community partners. Take part in sharing Dakota traditions through education, crafts and games.
